Q Q R Q Q R Q Q Q: 6 Construct A TM For Successor Function For A Given Unary Number - Ie. F (N) n+1

The document describes constructing Turing machines to perform successor functions on unary numbers. It provides the transition functions for a TM that takes a unary number n as input and outputs n+1. It then asks to construct a TM that takes a unary number n as input and outputs n+3, explaining it should move to the end of the input and change the last 3 blanks to 111. It also defines a universal Turing machine as one that can be programmed to solve any problem that can be solved by any Turing machine.

Construct a TM for successor function for a given unary number.ie. f(n)=n+1.

Ans: Logic: Move to rightmost end of the input string and change blank to 1. The
corresponding

transitions are:

(q0 ,1) ( q0 ,1, R)


(q0 , ) ( q1 ,1, R)
( q1 , ) ( qa , , )

qa
where

is the final state.

Construct a TM for the function f(n)=n+3 where n is a unary number.

Ans: Logic: Move to rightmost end of the input string and change last 3 blanks to
111.

universal Turing machine (UTM) is a Turing machine that can be


A
programmed to solve any problem, that can be solved by any Turing machine.
